2 Interface Products Design Guide
The CAN bus (Controller Area Network) protocol was designed to be a high-speed, reliable communication protocol for command and control network applications. Microchip offers a complete line of products to meet the needs of high-performance embedded applications using the CAN protocol, including 8- and 16-bit microcontrollers (MCUs) with integrated CAN, stand-alone CAN controllers, CAN I/O expanders and CAN transceivers. As CAN continues to grow and proliferate into other markets, the need to add CAN to simple sensor circuits increases. In some applications, a simple CAN sensor node can be cost prohibitive due to the higher cost of using a microcontroller with integrated CAN modules. Often the microcontrollers with integrated CAN have extra peripherals, program memory, RAM, etc. which the simple sensor application does not need.In addition to MCUs with integrated CAN, Microchip offers a low cost stand-alone CAN controller with SPI™ interface (MCP2515) which can be paired up with the desired MCU to create an optimized CAN node. The designer does not have to settle for the peripherals offered by an MCU with integrated CAN, but rather the designer can choose the MCU which best
matches the application.Additionally, the four pins used by the MCU for SPI can be regained by using the general purpose inputs and outputs on the MCP2515.The schematic shown below represents a very simple, low cost CAN solution.

MCP250XXMCP250XX
MCP250XX CAN I/O Expander
The MCP250XX devices operate as I/O expanders for a CAN system. These devices feature several peripherals including eight digital I/O, four 10-bit A/D converters and two 10-bit PWM channels. In addition, the MCP250XX can automatically send messages when an input changes state, including when an analog channel exceeds a preset threshold. The device can also be configured to send A/D and digital I/O messages at regular intervals.Three bits (plus the RTR bit or one more ID bit for direction) are reserved in the identifier/arbitration field of the CAN message to communicate with the MCP250XX. This allows a master CAN node to communicate/control the CAN I/O Expanders via the CAN bus.
Simple Sensor Network
The MCP250XX is ideal for simple, low cost sensor networks. Particularly where the higher layers are proprietary so the system designer can maximize the MCP250XX features. The diagram below shows a four-node sensor network using only one MCU.
Product specifications can be found on page 13.

MCP2551 CAN Transceiver
The MCP2551 is a high speed CAN transceiver which serves as an interface between the CAN bus and the CAN controller. The MCP2551 implements the ISO 11898-2 physical layer requirements which is by far the most common physical layer for CAN.The MCP2551 converts between logic levels generated by the CAN controller and differential signal levels on the bus. The differential signal is less prone to electrical disturbances. The MCP2551 protects the CAN controller from electrical anomalies such as voltage spikes, short circuits and other electrical transients on the bus.The diagram below shows the basic connections for connecting the MCP2551.
MCP2551 CAN Transceiver Features:
� Implements ISO 11898-2 physical layer requirements� Suitable for 12V and 24V systems� ±40V short circuit protection on the bus pins – Automatic thermal shutdown protection

TB059: Using The MCP2150 Developer’s Board With the MCP2155This technical brief describes how the MCP2150 Developer’s Board can be used for development of MCP2155 applications, and focuses on the Host UART signals from the U2 socket (MCP2150/MCP2155 ) to the MAX3238 device (U1) and the Header (J1).
AN758: Using the MCP2150 To Add IrDA® Standard Wireless ConnectivityMicrochip’s MCP2150 provides support for the IrDA standard protocol stack plus bit encoding/ decoding. This application note discusses the encoding/decoding functionality of this device.
TB046: Connecting the MCP2150 To The Psion Operating SystemSince the MCP2150 is a protocol handler supporting IrDA® stan dards plus an encoder/decoder, it can be used as a “Virtual Connector,” a wire less link between an embedded application and an IrDA standard host. This host can be a handheld device using the Psion OS. The Psion OS is generally used for small Personal Digital Assistants (PDA) devices.
TB047: Connecting the MCP2150 to the Windows CE® Operating SystemSimilar to TB046 but using a Microsoft® Windows® CE Operating System (OS). Windows CE is an excellent host platform for use with the MCP2150 because of the light weight, low cost, ease of use and portability of these devices. Microsoft Windows includes a terminal client that can easily be used to demonstrate this capability.

Ethernet Communications
AN833: The Microchip TCP/IP StackThis application note details Microchip’s own freely available implementation of the TCP/IP Stack. This TCP/IP Stack is a suite of programs that provide services to standard TCP/IP-based applications (HTTP Server, Mail Client, etc.), or can be used in a custom TCP/IP or UDP/IP-based application.
AN870: An SNMP Agent for the Microchip TCP/IP StackThis application note provides one of the key components of the SNMP Management system: the SNMP Agent that runs on the managed device. The simple agent presented here is designed to run on Microchip’s PICmicro® microcontrollers and is implemented using services provided by the free Microchp TCP/IP stack.
